Ortus Wines, meaning new beginnings, is the dream come to fruition over the span of 15 years for mother daughter duo, Julie and Paige Cooper.
Once a simple besser block machinery store, the building has been cleverly transformed into a warehouse style space with black-steel framed windows, bespoke crafted entry doors, polished concrete floors and Art Deco inspired light pendants – all oozing cool NY loft vibes. Outside, there are large open grass areas, and shady spots under the 100 year old gums to roll out a rug and savour the handcrafted range.
The McLaren Vale range comes from their own family vineyard, including Limited Editions where as little as two barrels were made, and other regional gems selected from the best vineyards each vintage.
